    Original Creations Compilations (contributions welcome)

    I never had the 3E version of DS. Didn't the 2E version Thri-keens have 2 arms and 4 legs or have all my years of wild hedonism finally caught up with me?

    DMG Monster Creation

    All monsters have healing surges (From the MM) Level # of healing surges 1-10 1 11-19 2 20+ 3 Just most monsters don't have an ability that lets them spend a healing surge (The Bullette does however). So if you made a warlord character that could allow...

    4ed torrents -How'd it happen?

    A torrent isn't in and of itself a file, a torrent is more like a pointer to a file or a file broker if you will. A torrent says hey who has the file named X out on the torrent network, then some number of machines say "hey I have that actual file". At that point the torrent program starts...

    DMG Monster Creation

    First off I love the section on monster creation, LOVE IT. However there seems to be one glaring omission. Minions, it doesn't even mention them. I didn't even see anything like the excerpt from the Wizards page (which is where I eventually went to get my guildlines). Also I'm not really...

    Ability Modifiers and "Monster" Races

    While I disagree about the racial penalties I couln't agree more with the powers. I really wish there where more racial powers and feats. When they where talking about the races really mattering initially I was thinking that you where going to get a parallel level up chart of abilities. Now...

    Minions: Do players know about them?

    /shrug its thematic I think its awsome that they don't know yet, keep playing it like that till they figure it out. You can never go backwards with knowledge (without an amazing space age tube to the head anyways) I would assume that generally the players wouldn't know if an particular...

    Torrent throwdown on the Wizards board

    I completely agree and raise you a Robert A Heinlein Quote "There has grown up in the minds of certain groups in this country the notion that because a man or a corporation has made a profit out of the public for a number of years, the government and the courts are charged with the duty of...

    Yes Moral consensus, so wait, am I pro life or pro choice? Also I was going to go have relations with a 17 year old, is my level of morality dependent on what country or state I'm in? When I drink at 19 years old in Canada I'm perfectly moral but when I go back to Michigan that little...

    Torrent throwdown on the Wizards board

    Im addressing 2 aurgments that I've seen in this thread #1) That legality = morality I'm not saying that you can't believe that, I'm just saying that morality being totally subjective its a ridiculous argument. #2) That breaking the law is always a bad thing and should always be punished...

    Torrent throwdown on the Wizards board

    It makes one wonder how sourceforge can exist at all since no one is being paid for their work. IP is not a car, it is not the food grow or the clothes on your back. Copying IP is not going to lead to some type of collapse of society. The absolute worst that would happen would be...

    Table of ability scores for each PHB race, MM race, and class

    It just seems like a huge pain in the ass to build non-combat interactions and mysteries players being able to use this at will.

    So if it was legal it would all be hunky dory in your book? "When fascism comes to America, it will be draped in the flag and carrying the cross."- Sinclair Lewis

    Torrent throwdown on the Wizards board

    So lets say for the sake of argument that an industry was colluding to fix prices. Lets say on some staple like bread. At what point am I justified in stealing? Is it at any point before I die of starvation? I would also have to ask you if I have the books and I make PDF's for my own...

    Torrent throwdown on the Wizards board

    Warlock you talk in a lot of absolutes. If I needed to steal to survive (clearly not the case here but to your point) I would certainly do so and I wouldn't feel bad about it at all. If I "stole" slaves from someone who legally owned them (in order to free them) are you saying that the slave...

    Torrent throwdown on the Wizards board

    Rebellion was against the law when the US broke from the UK. Anyone involved in the underground railroad helping free slaves was breaking the law also. While clearly this incident different. Just because its "against the law" in no way shape or form makes it unethical. While the ends...

    I never played ebberon so I can't speak to this. I just see PC's trying to impersonate everyone in every town all the time.

    Where are you getting this information is my question I have yet to see any even close to reliable data that piracy hurts sales by anywhere even approaching 20%. In fact software wise for games I'd like to give an example. I own a copy of Heroes of might and Magic V but I used a downloaded...

    Table of ability scores for each PHB race, MM race, and class

    What this table doesn't show you is the racial abilities. I wouldn't allow dopplegangers in my game because there racial ability would cause me way to much grief. Here is the non pretty expert Change Shape - Doppleganger racial power you alter your form to look like some other humanoid...
